We wish we could have this much fun in our kitchen.
Raised in Sweden but based in New Orleans for over a decade, Theresa Andersson mines her sonic roots of both homes on her gorgeous album Hummingbird, Go! (Basin Street Records), an intriguing blend of breezy, 60s-era pop combined with soul, gospel and Motown that features guest appearances by fellow Scandanavian Ane Brun and legendary New Orleans producer and composer Allen Toussaint.
Theresa’s “Birds Fly Away” has been an NPR song of the day and was KCRW‘s top tune in August.
Watch out for Theresa in early 2009: She will appear on “Late Night with Conan O’Brien” on February 4, performing “Birds Fly Away.” “Birds Fly Away” is a featured track on the upcoming Starbucks compilation Have You Heard, which will be available in all Starbucks locations starting in January. If that wasn’t enough, Theresa was just in the studio with David Byrne, recording some material for his upcoming CD (due late 2009).
